Description
Though most famous for his skill with a bow-and-arrow, Robin Hood was also a skilled swordsman. According to legend, his sword was as well known as he was - gifted to Robin by family or stolen from a noble warrior in Sherwood Forest. This breathtaking display sword flawlessly mirrors one of the most common depictions of the storied hero's sword, with its mirror-polished stainless steel display blade and ornately cast metal hilt. The guard is adorned with beautiful relief images, bookended by stately raven heads with a shield in the center, guarding a regal lion. Four dark bands encircle the tastefully simple cast metal handle, improving grip and providing vibrant visual contrast. Perhaps the most impressive feature is the pommel, a brilliant blue stone held within a circle by metal prongs. The circle and prongs form a classic stylized cross - strongly evocative of classic medieval design motifs. Earned or stolen, Robin Hood's sword was nothing short of legendary, and this breathtaking reproduction is no different. Place it atop your mantle or mount it on the wall as an impressive showpiece. Add authenticity to Middle Ages costumes by donning it in its included decorative scabbard. There's really no wrong way to enjoy the Robin of Locksley Display Sword!
